Additional Policies and FAQs

BUYING HANDMADE
All of our items are handmade and pieces may vary slightly from the photos in the listing. Particularly with the wax seal collection, each piece is hand stamped into fine silver at the time of order, so will be unique and one-of-a-kind. Antique and Vintage hardware has lived its life as something exposed to elements before it came to be a Piece of II – this means it will have the same wear and patina expected of an antique or vintage item. We try and represent this as much as possible in the images.

Please keep in mind that we usually make more than one of the same item, so please allow slight differences to the piece that you receive. If this is a problem, please feel free to contact us before purchase so that we can let you know if we will actually be able to send you the one in the picture.

CARING FOR YOUR PIECES
Our pieces are handmade and delicate. Please handle with care, wear them often, and store them away properly in a small plastic bag to prevent the precious metals from tarnishing.

Caring for fine (.999FS) silver:
Fine silver is a precious metal and will naturally tarnish when it is exposed to oxygen. To keep its shine, keep it in an air tight plastic zippy bag when you are not wearing it. Or, if it is already tarnishing, simply use a polishing cloth / dip it into a sterling silver cleaning solution. Many of our pieces are oxidized for an antique patina look, and should stay the way you got them unless you polish them. If you polish the areas with patina, they will shine and you will have a shiny piece with no patina – if this is the look you desire, perfect! If not, please contact us and we can teach you how to re-tarnish your piece.

CUSTOM ORDERS ARE WELCOME
We accept custom orders as well, if there is something special you had in mind, please contact us. We require a 50% non-refundable deposit for custom items prior to starting the piece. Once we have agreed on your design, we will send you an invoice for your deposit, and after it has been completed and we have sent you images, we will send you an invoice for your balance owing. We are sorry, there are no refunds accepted on custom orders.

For the wax seal jewelry, we are happy to customize your piece with a small amount of text on the back. For example, we can place a date on the back of cufflinks if they are being given for a special occasion.

ITEMS WITH BACK-ORDERED MATERIALS
Sometimes, we are back ordered on materials for certain items but they will still be listed in the shop. We always note that the materials are back ordered. If you would like to purchase the item, please be advised that it could take anywhere from 2-3 weeks to make and have delivered. Another option you have is to contact us and we will set up an invoice for a 50% deposit if you want us to reserve the item for you when it is made.

SOLD ITEMS
We try to keep designing new and fresh creations for our online shop. However, if you see something you like in our sold out items, please contact us. We would be more than happy to remake it if we have the materials to do so.

WHOLESALE
Wholesale orders are welcome, no consignment.
